Skinwalker Ranch, located in Utah, has been the subject of paranormal and UFO-related claims for decades. The ranch gained notoriety in the 1990s when reports of mysterious events, including cattle mutilations and unidentified flying objects, were publicized. Robert Bigelow, a businessman with an interest in the paranormal, purchased the ranch in 1996 and founded the National Institute for Discovery Science (NIDSci) to investigate the claims. While NIDSci was unable to find conclusive evidence of paranormal activity, the ranch continued to attract attention, and in 2016 it was sold to Brandon Fugal, a real estate developer. Fugal has continued to research the ranch, even collaborating with the Hutchings Museum Institute to better understand its history and environment. Skeptics argue that the claims of paranormal activity at Skinwalker Ranch are fabricated, while believers point to anecdotal evidence and ongoing investigations. The ranch has been the subject of numerous books, television shows, and podcasts, and remains a popular destination for those interested in the unexplained.
